Suggest Remedy For Shoulder Pain In Pregnant Women
I'm 18 weeks pregnant and have had no problems thus far. I woke up yesterday with right shoulder pain. I thought I just slept on it funny. The pain continued throughout the day and got much worse when I laid down to sleep. I was unable to rest lying down so I took some Tylenol and managed to sleep a few hours sitting in the recliner. The Tylenol helps dull the pain but it is still there.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern looking to the history given here I could say that this pain may be due to the poor posture during the sleep and no need to take any medicine because analgesic is not advisable in pregnancy just apply the local analgesic and this would helps a lot, take care and have a nice day.
